Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • May 13, 2026 Series B added $26M from Define Ventures and others.
  • March 4, 2026 Withings partnership adds connected scales and blood-pressure monitoring.
  • November 21, 2025 Novo Nordisk and Lilly partnership widened employer GLP-1 access.

What critics are saying

  • 9amHealth's 2026 employer push depends on GLP-1 pricing wars with Lilly and Novo.
  • Expansion beyond cardiometabolic care after May 2026 funding risks dilution before product-market fit.
  • If Fortune 100 savings do not recur, employer contracts and 9amHealth's model collapse.

What makes 9amHealth unique

  • Co-founders Frank Westermann and Anton Kittelberger previously built mySugr, sold to Roche in 2017.
  • 9amHealth combines specialists, at-home labs, devices, and medication delivery in one workflow.
  • By May 2026, 9amHealth had $55.6M funding and Fortune 100 savings evidence.

9amHealth raises $26M to expand AI-driven virtual care beyond cardiometabolic conditions

9amHealth, a virtual specialty care platform, has raised $26 million in Series B funding led by Define Ventures, with participation from SemperVirens VC, Catalio Capital Management and NewHealth Ventures. The company says it has generated over $50 million in projected medical and pharmacy savings across two Fortune 100 employers. Founded in 2021, 9amHealth currently focuses on cardiometabolic conditions including obesity, diabetes, hypertension and hyperlipidemia. The platform combines clinical protocols, laboratory testing, medication management and continuous care delivery. The funding will support expansion into additional high-cost chronic conditions, which the company says account for up to 70% of employer pharmacy spend. 9amHealth uses AI-enabled clinical workflows to manage complex conditions at scale, partnering with employers, health plans and pharmacy benefit managers.

Calm/Storm Ventures: After The Foundation Comes The Storm

Calm/Storm Ventures has strong roots with business angel Hansi Hansmann, Speedinvest, and Runtastic. After the first focus on HealthTech, the next fund is about financing the best founders in Austria. 2021 was a hype year that doubled the number of unicorns worldwide to 1,058 from 586 in 2020 after massive amounts of venture capital were pumped into these tech companies. Everything was different in 2022, when mass layoffs, downrounds, and a lack of venture capital dominated the headlines. The founders and partners of the Austrian VC Calm/Storm Ventures know these two poles very well. Taken together, Lucanus Polagnoli (ex-Speedinvest), Hansi Hansmann, and Alfred Luger (ex-Runtastic) weigh in on more than 180 investments as fund managers and business angels

Push Ventures: Startup-Fonds Mit Rückenwind

Nach jahrelanger Erfahrung als „einfacher“ Investor ­startete PUSH Ventures im ­vergangenen Jahr einen ersten großen und ­registrierten Investment-Fonds. Lukas Püspök und Laurenz Simbruner, die beiden Partner hinter dem VC, ­konnten den Fonds mit etwas mehr als 20 Millionen Euro auffüllen. Investiert werden soll in Health- sowie ­Climate-Startups — mit jeder Menge (familiären) Rückenwind. Der Fokus auf Klima-Startups verwundert nicht, blickt doch gerade Familie Püspök auf jahrelange Projekte in diesem Sektor zurück: Seit 1997 beschäftigt sich das Familienunternehmen mit der Stromerzeugung aus erneuerbarer Energie. Vor mehr als 20 Jahren begann die Geschichte mit der Entwicklung und Errichtung eines der ersten Windparks im Burgenland. Über zwei Jahrzehnte später setzt die nächste Generation die nächsten Schritte, gemeinsam mit Laurenz Simbruner und Investment-Manager David Aigner

Calm/Storm Ventures: Nach Der Gründung Kommt Der Sturm

Calm/Storm Ventures hat mit Business Angel Hansi Hansmann, Speedinvest und Runtastic kräftige Wurzeln. Nach dem ersten Fokus auf HealthTech geht es beim nächsten Fonds darum, die besten Gründer:innen Österreichs zu finanzieren. 2021 war ein Hype-Jahr, das die Zahl der Unicorns weltweit von 586 im Jahr 2020 auf 1.058 verdoppelte, nachdem enorme Mengen an Risikokapital in diese Tech-Firmen gepumpt wurden. 2022 war alles anders, da dominierten Massenkündigungen, Downrounds und fehlendes Risikokapital die Schlagzeilen. Diese beiden Pole kennen die Gründer und Partner des österreichischen VCs Calm/Storm Ventures genau. Zusammengerechnet bringen Lucanus Polagnoli (Ex-Speedinvest), Hansi Hansmann und Alfred Luger (Ex-Runtastic) mehr als 180 Investments als Fonds-Manager bzw
